I Don't Mind If You Steal Reprint My Posts

But at least give me the courtesy of crediting me for the material.

(And if you are going to swipe my stuff without crediting me, you'd think that you'd at least change the frakking title of the blog post.)

You know who you are.

7 Brickbats Thrown:

  1. I always credit you, oh wise one!

    (Hope it's not me you're thinking about.)

  2. It wasn't you, Suzan. If it was someone I knew, I'd contact directly.

  3. Likewise following Suzan- I'm an inveterate swiper of other's content, but I try pretty hard to credit the source... and normally, to add something extra. I just skimmed over recent stuff, and I didn't see anything, but I do swipe from here from time to time.

  4. As do I, Lockwood.

    Sometimes we all get ideas from another blog and forget where thy came from. It happens. But lifting an entire post, including the title? Nuh-uh. That's a flagrant foul.

    This perp has no profile on its blog and nothing that would lead me to an email address. Otherwise I would have lodged a private complaint.

  5. Esteemed Comrade E.B. Misfit,

    If it weren't for the legal crap, I'd volunteer, but I'm sure you've tracked the miscreant as best as possible. Perhaps an IP address would be of use, or is it a hard to track throw-away type, based offshore?

    I'd suggest you take the plagiarism as a compliment but that's crap, it's just laziness.

  6. Exmixer, it's not worth the effort to track the perp down. S/he'll either pay heed or not.

    "It's not worth the effort to track the perp down..."

    Well, if you insist, I'll cease and desist. Spoil my fun, no problem [g]
